Work as advertised
Analogy: Wood hardener to wood is like SuperGlue to paper.
Pros:
-Soaks in crazy fast
-Appears to alter the wood on a chemical level, hardening it
-Achieved the idea of what it is advertised to do, Harden and restore.
-Altered the visible appearance of the wood as if it were stained (this is subjective as a Pro)
-Application of this material benefits by spraying, i used an old windex bottle + sprayer
-5 stars, would definitely purchase this stuff (en mass) next time!
Cons:
-Was not prime shipping speed (ORMD shipping required), which is Ok.
-Dries incredibly fast, meaning you have to work MUCH MUCH faster.
-Consistency/Viscocity closely resembling paint thinner
-This stuff will dissolve latex gloves over the course of 15 minutes. Please wear REAL RUBBER GLOVES.
-PPE (personal protective equipment) required to use this item. Gloves, Eye protection, Respirator
-Be prepared to work fast!
-Buy more of this than you think you will need, as old dry wood will absorb this stuff like a dehydrated camel!!
-One can barely enough to treat three 16x20" cedar wood frames
